Do you suppose many voters didn’t know that this old goat is living with his “aide” while his wife languishes in that nursing home? Many Christians still think the promise he made to be faithful to her “Till death us do part” actually means till death.

After his surrender to Grant at Appomattox, Robert E. Lee went home to care faithfully for his invalid wife until her death. Then he cared for her sick mother until she too passed away. Duty was a guiding principle in Lee’s life. Today it’s the least appreciated of all the virtues.

Not sure. Let’s ask the good folks from the Magnolia State. How about it folks? Is this pretty much common knowledge?
